Why are so many viewers always struggling with Monica's good and bad issues? The title is obviously summer with monika (summer with monika)
In addition, Monica's performance after marriage is more suitable for girls from this family. Harry has been expecting a stable new family to fight for because he lost his mother since he was a child, but the trivial life day after day is simply the end of the world for Monica. Her outlook on life is to escape from reality rather than build reality. Therefore, their final disintegration is not a question of character, age or an affair, but because they are two completely different people.
In the classic line at the end of the play, Monica cried and said why some people are lucky and some are unlucky. Harry comforted her, "But we still love each other!" In fact, they may not realize that they are the happiest people at this time.
Bergman had made it very clear at the end. Harry was gazing at him with his little daughter, reminiscing about Monica's exposed ketone body by the sea in the summer. The best moment in life is to have youth, freedom and love at the same time. The ketone body that shines in the sun is a symbol of transitivity.
I suddenly remembered my mentor who recommended me to see Bergman and said that people dare not admit it, but the truth is often that the time when life is truly happy is very short. For Harry, the moment that evokes the softest beauty and love in his heart is that afternoon when he gets along with Monica on the summer beach.
